Hermione’s Dinner
Hermione’s Dinner a play by Ian Dixon Potter
Carla, one of that rare breed of women who harbour a powerful aversion for children, is hoping to save her old friend Roger from being drawn into the clutches of Sue, a woman who desperately wants to ‘start a family’. Roger was equally unenthusiastic about the prospect of fatherhood but has he now changed his mind? Carla is introduced to Sue at Hermione’s dinner party. Hermione, prematurely aged by the rigours of parenthood, is struggling to control her unruly and malevolent children whilst being constantly reminded of the glittering career she was forced to give up. The battle lines are drawn.

Toxic
Toxic a play by Ian Dixon Potter
A monumental ego and a self seeking ruthlessness have propelled Fletcher to the top of his profession. An ‘alpha male’ in every sense, Fletcher surrounds himself with flatterers and sycophants who fear and loathe him. Knowing his reputation for preying on young female employees, Caroline keeps her distance but an opportunity to advance her career propels her into Fletcher’s lascivious clutches.
